What Bills' practice squad looks like after injuries force busy month of movement

The Buffalo Bills have a former starting WR and a three-time Super Bowl champion currently stashed on their practice squad

The Buffalo Bills' practice squad has experienced a significant amount of turnover through the season's first 10 weeks.

While safety Jordan Poyer and defensive tackle Jordan Phillips started the season on the practice squad, injury needs have since forced them up to the active roster. A similar fate seems likely for wide receiver Gabe Davis, who returned to the Bills in a practice squad capacity at the end of the summer.

Defensive end Kingsley Jonathan came back to the practice squad earlier this month, but his stint lasted only one week. Wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson, who joined the Bills in the offseason, was also dropped this week.

The Bills added two veterans to the practice squad following the Week 10 loss to the Miami Dolphins, kicking the tires of former Kansas City Chiefs' second-round wide receiver Mecole Hardman and Los Angeles Chargers' starting defensive lineman Morgan Fox.

Those two additions push Buffalo to the 16-player practice squad limit, but the presence of an International Pathway player allows the Bills an exemption, meaning they can choose to carry 17 men.

QB Shane Buechele

The veteran quarterback is a solid emergency option, who seems to be a good fit for the QB room.

The Bills' 2024 seventh-round pick is exempt from counting against the practice squad limit due to his International Pathway status.
